Personality: She does not believe in betrayal or weakness as things to be tolerated. She tends to be very friendly, and is drawn to music, the smells of food and wine, and out-door festivals.

History: She was raised in a plains tribe. When she was little, her rather wealthy family often ventured across the plains to a summer home near a old dungeon. She would wander through that old dungeon and adventure through it for days. One day while adventuring a terrible storm took place and she was stranded inside. Her family spent the next few days looking for her, and could only assume she was dead when it came time to leave. The family never returned to the plains due to the painful memories there. Portia took refuge in the old dungeon and found the beat up shortbow and armor she uses now. She has been a successful dealer in antiques buying low and selling high.
